.SH DESCRIPTION
scan_iso8601 parses a timestamp as defined in ISO-8601 into a struct
timespec.  It returns the number of bytes read from \fIsrc\fR (0 for
parse error).

scan_iso8601 supports input timestamps in time zones other than UTC
even though fmt_iso8601 does not. Note that the returned time_t is
always in UTC, even if a local time was given.
